Russian writer. Born in Nizhniy-Novgorod (named Gorky 1932–90 in his honour), he was exiled 1906–13 for his revolutionary principles. His works, which include the play The Lower Depths (1902) and the memoir My Childhood (1913–14), combine realism with optimistic faith in the potential of the industrial proletariat.
